Status: Not Logged In; Sign In Watching The Cops See other Watching The Cops Articles Title: Veteran can't sue for false arrest Source: Short Circuit URL Source: [None] Published: Jun 4, 2018 Author: John Ross Post Date: 2018-06-04 17:37:08 by tpaine Keywords: None Views: 1488 Comments: 12 Army veteran suffering from PTSD tells VA therapist he thought about shooting Louisville, Ky. police officer (who cited him for minor traffic violation) but that he did not intend to do it. A VA staff member informs the police (without the therapist's say-so). The (Louisville, Ky) officer gets the veteran charged with making terroristic threats, neglects to mention therapist's belief that veteran was not a risk. The veteran spends 10 days in jail before charges dismissed. Sixth Circuit Decision: The officer had a warrant, so the veteran can't sue for false arrest (though he might have been more successful had he raised different claims).

(1) No monetary liability and no cause of action shall arise against any mental health professional for failing to predict, warn of or take precautions to provide protection from a patient's violent behavior, unless the patient has communicated to the mental health professional an actual threat of physical violence against a clearly identified or reasonably identifiable victim, or unless the patient has communicated to the mental health professional an actual threat of some specific violent act.

You're making another juvenile distinction that is in reality a distraction, attempting to cloak your acceptance of this dangerous infringement on our right to have privileged communications with doctors, etc.. tpaine  posted on  2018-06-05   1:23:25 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   Replies to Comment # 9. #10. To: tpaine (#9) You're making another juvenile distinction that is in reality a distraction, attempting to cloak your acceptance of this dangerous infringement on our right to have privileged communications with doctors, etc.. You quoted an email and I just presented the relevant law without comment. You are the one flapping your gums about it. Unfortunately, you do not know what a privileged communication is. I did not defend any "acceptance of this dangerous infringement on our right to have privileged communications with doctors." The law speaks for itself. Communicating a desire or intent to shoot a cop is not a privileged communication. A communication which is subject to a reporting law such as Duty to Warn is not a privileged commuunication. The privilege itself is not conferred by God, but by law. If the law specifies an exception, the excepted matter is not privileged. http://www.ncsl.org/research/health/mental-health-professionals-duty-to-warn.aspx Mental Health Professionals’ Duty to Warn 9/28/2015 Most states have laws that either require or permit mental health professionals to disclose information about patients who may become violent. [...] Under ethical standards tracing back to the Roman Hippocratic Oath, doctors and mental health professionals usually must maintain the confidentiality of information disclosed to them by patients in the course of the doctor-patient relationship. With some exceptions codified in state and federal law, health professionals can be legally liable for breaching confidentiality. One exception springs from an effort to protect potential victims from a patient’s violent behavior. California courts imposed a legal duty on psychotherapists to warn third parties of patients’ threats to their safety in 1976 in Tarasoff v. The Regents of the University of California. This case triggered passage of “duty to warn” or “duty to protect” laws in almost every state as summarized in the map and, in more detail, in the chart below. https://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/the-crime-fraud-exception-the-attorney-client-privilege.html Most states allow—or require—attorneys to disclose information learned from a client that will prevent death or serious injury. Many have a similar rule where revealing otherwise confidential information would prevent or remedy financial injury due to a crime or fraud. nolu chan  posted on  2018-06-05 13:21:54 ET  Reply   Untrace   Trace   Private Reply   End Trace Mode for Comment # 9.
